Bob and his wife established a donor-advised fund at the Community Foundation many years ago so that they could build a personal charitable account over time.

Bob and his wife established a donor-advised fund at the Community Foundation many years ago so that they could build a personal charitable account over time. The Community Foundation made the set-up and ongoing administration of their fund quick and easy.

Feeling that it was important to develop a spirit of giving in their three children, the pair named each as successor advisors to their fund. Their children know where their hearts lean and will be able to carry on their giving after they are gone.

Under their children’s guidance, the fund will continue to support their favorite organizations and carry on the family’s charitable legacy for many years to come.
